Roadkill

Argh- wasn't not was.

I agree TwiceAsNice. It felt more like the start of a series than the end. I liked how it went though. He was obviously smarter than the various underlings gave him credit.
It was exactly 'Yes Minister' though!

Binge watched it on IPlayer with DD2 last Sunday .Loved it! Think the end is paving the way for another series

I have just binge watched this. The dialogue was stilted, the storyline was unconvincing and given the quality of the cast, the acting was somewhat wooden. New scriptwriters are needed if there is to be a second series.

There’ll definitely be a second series, but I think I’ll just make up my own, like I did with ‘ Killing Eve’. Couldn’t be bothered with any more.

I like it except I am increasingly puzzled who three of the women are, as they look so alike with their pretty faces and long dark hair. I can however pick out the Prime Minister who was the Gypsy Queen in Peaky Blinders.

I can't decide if I should binge watch or wait patiently for next week's episode. I do think the SPADs are still getting away with stuff they might not do if any of the MPs had watched "The Thick of It".

We watched the whole series on iPlayer!

I fell asleep in 4 too Dilly and then looked for 5 !! 4 certainly leaves it open for another series?!

Watched the second episode last night.....boring! Am with you
LazyRiver on this, slow and wooden.

I've now seen two and plan to watch the next two this pm. Interesting how all the various 'underlings' seem in collusion. I wonder how true to life it is.

I got fed up in the first episode and went off to do something else.
DH is enjoying it though.

I’m enjoying it. So few series lately keep my attention.

We’ve watched two, and will watch the other two tonight. I don’t normally like anything political, unless it’s in the background to the main story. My husband enjoys them. I like the domestic side, emotional etc, but got confused when the journalist girl was in Washington, as to who was who, and the ease at which she found them all. Will persevere, as there’s only two more. If there’d been eight, I would have given up. I don’t think it’s helped us re watching’ Life on Mars’, and ‘ Ashes to Ashes’ again. Sooooo good. This seemed a bit bland after that. Hugh Laurie is good though.

I enjoyed the first two episodes last night..may do a binge of the rest as DH & I both enjoyed it. Felt it was not too far fetched but had enough 'drama' to make it entertaining. Good actors too!

I watched it but thought it was a bit predictable. I knew what the SPADs were up to- I blame too many episodes of "The Thick of It". And the druggy daughter is a bit of a stereotype. Still I will watch the rest of it to see if there are any surprises.

You're right, * Flossie*. My mistake. No wonder I got to the end so quickly

I fell asleep through episode 4, I didn’t realise it was the final episode, I thought I’d catch up with what happened in episode 5, now i find out the series had only 4 in total. I must pay more attention, I have the attention span of a knat!

I thought there were only 4 episodes in this series.

Oh no! Been watching it on iPlayer and thought I had one more episode to go but suddenly found I was already on episode 6. It must be a good sign that I wanted more .....

Sorry, bit of a typo. Slow and wooden.

Oh dear, I thought it was full and wooden, and gave up after 20 mins!
Mind you I have just re watched the Night Manager, where Hugh Laurie is absolutely terrifying.
Also remember The House of Cards, so Roadkill came out as a poor offering.
Sorry!....

The first episode was very promising. You can’t really go wrong with Hugh Laurie and Helen McCrory.

I agree! I'm on episode 4 and loving it. It does remind me of House of Cards many moons ago.

Loved it!
